Special_Setback_Areas

Special setback line means a setback line, on a lot or several lots, established by separate ordinance adopted by the City Council. The special setback line, which supersedes the normally required setback line, may be greater or less than the setback prescribed in the development standards for the particular land use district in which the lot or lots may be located. Whenever a special setback line is established in accord with the zoning regulations, the setback area shall be considered a required yard area. The special setback line and setback area shall take the place of the otherwise applicable yard requirements for the zone district, except that when the regular setback of the district is greater than a special setback, the regular setback shall supersede the special setback and be controlling.特殊退线（special setback line）指由市议会通过单独条例划定的、适用于单块或多块地块的退线。该特殊退线可替代常规要求的退线标准，其退距可大于或小于对应土地用途分区开发标准中针对该地块所属特定用地分区规定的退距。当特殊退线符合区划条例要求时，该退线范围内的区域应被认定为强制要求的庭院用地。特殊退线及对应的退线区域将取代该分区原本适用的庭院管控要求，但当该分区的常规退线数值大于特殊退线时，常规退线将取代特殊退线并具有控制性效力。
